<p>The main GCC documentation is in the form of manuals in Texinfo
format.  These are installed in Info format; DVI versions may be
generated by &lsquo;<samp class="samp">make dvi</samp>&rsquo;, PDF versions by &lsquo;<samp class="samp">make pdf</samp>&rsquo;, and
HTML versions by &lsquo;<samp class="samp">make html</samp>&rsquo;.  In addition, some man pages are
generated from the Texinfo manuals, there are some other text files
with miscellaneous documentation, and runtime libraries have their own
documentation outside the <samp class="file">gcc</samp> directory.  FIXME: document the
documentation for runtime libraries somewhere.
